    I think that gordon will have a better career. Emeka is very injury prone.

    Okafor, I think will have the better career. If he can stay healthy, he will be a sure-fire 20/10 guy in another year or so. However, if Gordon gets himself starter minutes, he has the capability to be a top 5 scorer in the league. And, if he can work on his passing skills and defensive abilities, he will be that much better.

    Emeka Okafor. I think they are the two brightest points in that class. The only reason I think Okafor will be more noted for success is he is a big man. Big men are harder and harder to come by, but scoring guards come along all the time.

    Emeka. I don't think he will be injury prone, and he could be a 25-10 guy if he keeps his work ethic strong. He won't be better by much, but I'd take him over gordon

    Both will have very bright futures, but I`m giving the edge to Okafor. Emeka looks great and if he stays in good health, I think hes only getting better and better.

    Okafor

    I choose Okafor. As many people have said he will be a double-double player and an excellent defender. Gordon will be an electric scorer but the rest of his game isnt on par with his scoring.
